Solve the equation: \(-\frac{5}{4}n = 40\)

My answer choices are:

A. \(n = -50\)

B. \(n = -32\)

C. \(n = 32\)

D. \(n = 50\)

− 4 5 ​ n = 40 / ⋅ ( − 5 4 ​ ) − 4 5 ​ ⋅ ( − 5 4 ​ ) n = 40 ⋅ ( − 5 4 ​ ) n = 8 ⋅ ( − 4 ) = − 32 A n s w er : B : n = − 32

The solution to the equation − 4 5 ​ n = 40 is n = − 32 . This was found by multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of the coefficient of n . The answer is option B: n = − 32 .
